    I just inherited a Wii with nothing on it and no game disks and just discovered they shut down the Wii store. Crap. I'm definitely going the homebrew route. Quick question, you say I can use anywhere from a 2GB-32GB SD card, but everything else I read say it has to be 2GB or less. I have several 4GB cards, but just curious if I need to buy a 2GB just for the hack. Thanks.

      I use a 64gb formatted to fat32 and there is no issues. The only reason why it's said that you can only use up to 32gb is because anything over 32gb is formatted to exfat by default, which is incompatible with the Wii. However, anything over 32gb will work if it is formatted to fat32.

      For anyone still looking for a fix, I had the same problem and all I had to do was change my wii's date, it was set to 2035 but the letter was sent on my computer's time

      For me I had to reformat the SD card (even though it was already the proper format) and do the steps again.

      This is because your mac address is literally your wii's digital address, it is vital for your wii to connect to the internet.

      I've completely set up an r4 card for the ds on my phone, I think you should be able to, just download a file manager and you should be fine to do this as downloads work on mobile
